The Collaboration of Two Kings Around the same time, Jumli Maharaj of the Kallyal dynasty, another ruler from the neighboring region, received a similar divine message.

This temple was dedicated to Goddess Satidevi, as it was believed that one of her left limbs had fallen at this site, making it a sacred Shakti Peeth.

King Dipraj Chatyal used black gram paste and stone for the temple’s foundation, while Jumli Maharaj contributed copper plates for its structure.

Pleased with Dipraj Chatyal’s devotion, Goddess Malika Devi began offering him 84 varieties of food each day as a divine blessing.
